About the time in Shekou
Shekou sits at latitude 30.71, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 04m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:53 and sunset at 06:57 local time, giving 13h 04m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (30.71, 114.35) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Shekou.
Shekou runs on Asia/Shanghai, which puts the city UTC +8 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
